Hi,
How do I specify proxy server(with authentication) for pup/pirut in
fc5. I tried setting the command line var http_proxy, and also setting
the proxy here: System --> Preferences --> Network proxy. But neither
pup nor pirut seem to be contacting the proxy( they hang when opened).
Check the proxy directives in "man yum.conf"
pup/pirut are probably not picking up the http_proxy environment setting
because the variable wasn't set in the login shell from which they're
running (are you just typing it in a command window?).
